After going through pregnancy for nine months or so, there’s no better feeling for new mums and dads than spending time with their little angel. Of course, it’s pretty standard for parents to receive congratulatory cards – but what about everyone else who supported them throughout the journey? If you feel like there are some people you owe a big thank you to, just keep on reading. From hospital staff and arrival announcements to friends and family messages, we’ve come up with all the baby thank you card wording and message inspiration you’ll need post-partum.
Baby thank you notes for family and friends
No doubt your closest friends and family have gone out of their way to make you feel as comfortable as possible throughout your pregnancy and our thank you cards are a great way to show your appreciation for everything. Don’t forget to write a sweet message inside or go with one of our baby thank you notes:
- Thank you for always being on call and an absolute saint throughout the pregnancy. She/he is doing amazing!
- There’s honestly no way we could’ve gotten through this journey as seamlessly without all your wise words and support, thank you.
- As new parents, we send our deepest thanks for being by our side as we learn the ropes and for sharing all your baby wisdom with us both.
- I’m so glad to have you be a major part of baby [insert baby’s name] life. You’ve been such an important person to me and the little one is super excited to meet you.
- Thank you so much for everything including the gorgeous card and gift, we’re extremely lucky to have you.
Thank you messages to hospital staff
When it comes to thinking of people you should thank for helping bring your baby into the world, one of the most obvious choices is the hospital staff, particularly the midwives. Always there to provide full care and support for women during birth, their role is so important and they’re the ones that help you and the baby stay healthy and safe during delivery.
What’s more, at thortful we’ve got midwife thank you cards or even a thank you card for the doctor or other NHS staff to write your message in!
- Thank you for being so supportive when I was going through the most exciting yet terrifying experience of my life.
- We’re both so thankful that you were there to help safely welcome our little bundle of joy into the world.
- We can’t even begin to explain how much it means to have had such good support by our side during this process. Thank you!
- We just want to express our gratitude for everything you do and of course how much of a big help you were to us during our time in your hospital.
- I can’t even imagine having gotten through giving birth without your constant encouragement and support, you truly are the best at what you do!
Baby arrival announcement messages
If you want just one message to send out to everyone you know, or potentially even to post on social media, that lets people know about your baby’s arrival, here are some of our suggestions for baby arrival announcement messages:

Thank you for attending my baby shower messages
Maybe you’re not quite ready to pop yet? For those who have recently celebrated their pregnancy with a baby shower, here are some ways to say thank you to those who attended or took the time to organise it:
- It honestly meant so much to have you at my baby shower to celebrate my future little one’s arrival, thank you for the lovely card and gift too!
- There’s nobody I’d rather celebrate our peanut’s journey with than you, I love you so much and appreciate you for always being there!
